Produced by: Matt and Gunnar Nelson
There haven't been too many reports of the new Nelson record due to the lack of availability of the album. Their website is selling it and now AOR Heaven has copies available, but that is about it.
Well it shouldn't be too long before a major label picks this up - it's pure AOR bliss.
I think that it has now become my favourite Nelson album, but that only comes with repeated listens.
This release totally defines an independent release, as the CD is a printed up CDR, but at least there is now full cover & artwork available.
What I had heard is that it is a return to the band's glory days a la their debut album.
True, but I find that a little confusing as their glory days have never left us! Anyone who has their last two Japanese releases can testify to that. Great vocal and guitar pop rock.
But I can add that this album has in some part returned to the sweeter harmonies and more pop influenced rock that the debut was heralded for.
Imaginator and Silence Is Broken were a little tougher and Because They Can was just not as good.
This is very catchy and harmony filled pop rock of the highest order. It is a more mature record, more intelligent and even though it is softer, still quite a complex record.
In fact I don't think the harmonies between brothers Matt and Gunner have ever been better. Every track features them harmonizing in some way. Wonderful stuff for Nelson and AOR fans. This is quite possibly the most infectiously catchy album of the year!
The whole album reminds me a lot of the great vibe and feel of Rick Springfield's RCA Records debut Working Class Dog. Loose, upbeat and happy and killer pop songs.
A Girl Like That is as commercial a tune as you will hear. A duel harmony filled uptempo pop song that is happy in nature from start to finish and should leave a smile on the face of AOR fans anywhere.
A little more urgent in it's approach is I Would If You Want Me To. This is pure AOR. A verse a bridge and a chorus that typifies the best these guys have to offer. Quite the understated anthem this track.
The brothers cover their father's old tune Life next. This is pretty simple. A real laid back acoustic pop song and very Beatles.
She Sheila is more uptempo and rocks pretty hard, even thought it is still basically a pop song. A really happy tune and a personal favourite.
Someone Like You is a great ballad. A nice little twist in the chorus and a brilliant drawn out ending makes the difference between this and a hundred other ballads. This is more an acoustic ballad for the new millenium. There's also a great guitar section that ends the track.
Everybody Cries Sometimes is pure Nelson pop AOR. A big uptempo pop rocker and another harmony filled chorus.
Let's Talk About Me is another album highlight. This killer tune is Rick Springfield all over and is one of those Working Class Dog sort of tunes.
Let's Talk is fast and furious rocker in the vein of Love Is Alright Tonight or Light Of Love and is a killer track. Great lyrics too.
She Said She'd Be Mine and The Hunger just continue the great melodies. Both are a little moodier, but still mid to up tempo.
Is That How It Is? finishes the album with another moody mid paced song, but with a little more classic AOR feel. Pure melodic bliss for sure.
While this album is primarily acoustic driven, with dashes of electric guitar riffs and solo's and is self produced, it still retains a big budget sound.
I guess the guys have learned quite a bit over the years and the absence of a label and a producer make no difference here.
This is first class pop rock and essential to anyone that loves simple and quality pop.
|ESSENTIAL FOR: All good AOR fans. Every Nelson fan and lovers of fine pop rock.

I dont care what Anyone says NELSON IS NELSON I am a devoted fan I love all their music and always will . Every album is great to me . So are the guys..... SO I say they should keep on rockin. ..... GOOD JOB GUYS and to those who dont like Nelson :P Who cares what you think
Rating: 75
I like Nelson. I really do. But this album along with "Silence is Broken" I guess I just did not get. I found their first 3 albums to be exceptional. In fact I might be one of the only ones to really love "Because We Can". And "Imaginator" is just incredible. Those guys really rocked on that album, and I like that side of them. But mostly those Nelson twins can sing. Man, can they sing. And they sound great on "Life". I just don't find the songs as catchy and driven as on previous efforts. Maybe they are too sophisticated for me? At any rate I would welcome a return to the catchier melodies and verses as found on previous records.
Rating: 95
They are one of a handful of bands (danger danger, sammy hagar) that continually put out radio friendly music with melodic
hooks and guitar driven rock that any rocker or pop enthusiast would enjoy. Gunnar and Matthew work very well together and
they know what works for them. Their harmonies together make the record. For some good hard rockers check out their last
2 albums IMAGINATOR and SILENCE IS BROKEN.
Rating: 100
If you love the BEATLES(no matter what your age) and anything that was remotely influenced by them-then you HAVE GOT TO OWN THIS C.D.!!! ENJOY...
Rating: 100
the harmonies are the best on this album. the best album of 99
Rating: 65
I like nelson but I can't rate this as highly as other who like it. nothing can beat "after the rain" for me. "someone like you,
"a girl like that" and "Life" are excellent songs however. a bit heavier sound would be nice but theres no doubt the ballads here shite all over all the songs from the "brother harmony" album which I was very dissappointed in(except "what about me"). In all, not bad, worth having if your a nelson fan.
Rating: 95
This is another release that radio chooses to ignore. Great harmonies. This cd is there best yet! If Evan and Jaron can get so much air play, why not this cd. You won't find this in your local cd shop. Try www.nehrecords.com for the best price on this cd.
Rating: 9
I will admit that at first I was just a bit disappointed. I was expecting the same type of production that I had come to love Nelson for (loads of effects, ridiculously layered instrumentation, etc...) However, after 2 listens I found I could hum damn near every song... and I enjoyed it! No, it's not a return to "After The Rain" (which, despite the weird looks I get, I still think is an exceptional album). BUT, every song on "LIFE" (with the exception of the boring, hokey title track) is phenomonal. I could break it down song by song but they would ALL say this: incredible harmonies, ungodly catchy, very well written, solid production. The only songs I could have done without were the aforementioned "Life" and, oddly, the last track "Is That How It Is". Other than those two it's a foot tapping, scream your head off in your car, god I wish I could write like that, MUST HAVE!
Rating: 95
I took a big chance with this CD. You see, here in England, Japanese imports cost Ł30, which is over twice the price of home-released discs. Anyway, it was probably the best Ł30 I've ever spent! This is a fantastic album. It isn't hard rock or even true AOR, it doesn't sound like After The Rain either. No, what it is, is a classic piece of supremely melodic pop-rock with AOR touches in some of the song structures. My pick of the bunch changes every day, but "I Would If You Want Me To," "A Girl Like That," "Someone Like You," "The Hunger" & "Let's Talk About Me" are the ones that get repeat play on my CD player. Basically, this CD has forced me to stop listening to the new Danger Danger CD, and believe me, that should tell you how good Nelson are! Absolutely BRILLIANT!!
Rating: 2
let me explain my rating.. this was suppose to be a return to the debt album's sound. hardly.. this is way way softer than even that album. there are definately loads of harmonies, and they sound great, but this is not even close to the debut as far as being heavy. a lot of the songs even sound country.. as far as being a well written cd. i think some of the songs are a bit cheesy. dont get me wrong i am a nelson fan, but this is not what i had in mind when people said it was a return to the debut sound.. as a nelson cd and supposedly returning to the debut sound i give it a 2 of 10.. for a pretty descent very light pop rock album,, i give it a 7 because the are loads of harmonies,, and they do sound great. but in the end i was very very dissappointed..

Return to the GoPro Lens Correction? thread
Login to post to this thread
I just bought a GoPro Hero2 camera and am considering using it for physics analysis. It's got this cool fisheye lens. That's not the best for use with video analysis.Is there a way to create a filter to correct for the image distortion this causes?Paul
Hi Paul,I've seen those GoPro cameras and they are indeed very cool. Unfortunately, it is unlikely I will be able to create a filter to correct for the fisheye distortion any time soon.Are there video experiments you are considering that require the use of the fisheye?Doug
Doug,Thanks for your reply.The primary advantage of the GoPro is it's small size and high resolution. For physics experiments this makes it possible to do some cool things with relative motion by placing the camera on the moving object or on some other reference frame.The GoPro also comes with an array of mounting hardware to easily stick it anywhere.No, the field of view is not important. And the wide angle will make capturing some experiments more difficult.Some people have suggested using video editing software to take out the fisheye effect. Of course, I'd like to do it with some technical accuracy and I'd like to have a simple method to re-process the video to make things square. Modifying the video has a nice visual advantage.I saw that you already have a method to correct for an improper video perspective; the plane of the CCD not being in a parallel plane to the motion you are trying to measure. Squeezing a trapezoid is simple in comparison to adjusting for a fisheye lens. But it's basically remapping two coordinate systems. Though drawing lines on the display requires making arcs rather than straight lines.Paul
Ok, the Mars rover is sending back fisheye images.Can you give me a lens correction feature now?:)
Hi Paul,
I now have a video filter that can transform your GoPro fisheye videos to uniform scale for analysis. It's still in development but it's at a point where some beta testers would be very useful--are you interested?
Paul and other Tracker users: if you have images or videos taken with a fisheye lens and you want to try out this new filter please email me at dobrown at cabrillo dot edu. I hope to include this filter in the next release version of Tracker which should be around the beginning of March.
Thanks :-) Doug
That would be just awesome. I'm in.You should be aware that GoPro changed the optics just a bit for the Hero3. And the Hero3 has a few choices for it's field of view which basically amount to cropping the image internally. The more narrow fields of view have less distortion.I'm happy to do some testing. I could send you some video also.Paul
The new Tracker version 4.80 can now correct for fisheye lens distortions :-) I hope this will open up lots of interesting video possibilities using the GoPro and other fisheye/wide angle lenses.
To correct a fisheye image apply a radial distortion filter (Video|Filters|New|Radial Distortion). Set the input image type to Fisheye, then adjust the input field of view and the fixed pixel diameter.
Please let me know how this filter works for you. And if you or a student analyzes or models an interesting fisheye video, I'd love to get a copy in a TRZ file!
best regards,Doug
You rock, Doug!I'll try to get you some more videos soon.Paul

While the rest of the baseball world heads to the winter meetings and focuses on C.J. Wilson, Jose Reyes, and Prince Fielder, everyone expects that the Dodgers are finished. Foolishly or not, they've spent their money on Juan Rivera, Mark Ellis, Matt Treanor, Adam Kennedy, and Chris Capuano, and with the payroll all but exhausted and Hiroki Kuroda looking elsewhere, public opinion is largely that Ned Colletti shouldn't even spend his time going to Dallas because the Dodgers are done.
Still, it is the winter meetings, which means that rumors always fly – remember, last year I did basically a four-day live blog as the Dodgers were connected to tons of rumors and came away with Vicente Padilla and Tony Gwynn – and they do still have a few needs. Barring a completely unexpected trade, here's the three items to keep an eye out for.
5th starter. With Capuano in the mix, the first four starters are set, and at the moment, Nathan Eovaldi is the 5th starter. Eovaldi showed promise in a few starts with the big club last year, but didn't prove to me that he's ready for a full-time gig without more seasoning. To be honest, I'm guessing that Colletti feels the same. Remember 2010, when the season started with a questionable fifth starter in Charlie Haeger behind a relatively solid front four? Haeger flamed out early and Vicente Padilla got hurt, and that's how you ended up with 33 starts from John Ely, Carlos Monasterios, and Ramon Ortiz. Colletti recognized that misstep and attempted to overcompensate in 2011 by having six starters, bringing back Padilla and adding Jon Garland. It didn't work out, since each got hurt (as did Rubby De La Rosa), but the intent was good, and I'm guessing that Colletti won't want to start 2012 counting on the uncertain Eovaldi without much behind him. But who? Buster Olney suggests that Aaron Harang could still be in play, though I find it hard to see him fitting into the Dodger salary structure after declining his $5m mutual option with the Padres. This is where I'm thinking we'll see the bulk of the rumors this week.
Backup infielder. Despite importing Kennedy, Colletti doesn't appear to be satisfied with Justin Sellers to join him on the bench, as Tony Jackson notes:
Colletti also wants another utility player; veterans Jerry Hairston and Jack Wilson are high on the list, as is incumbent Aaron Miles.
Kennedy seems to satisfy the "veteran lefty who can't hit or play shortstop" role that Miles had, so I doubt he'd really be in play. You never got to see the infield post I had ready to go just before Kennedy was signed, but you probably don't need to in order to guess that I think Wilson is a completely useless piece. Hairston is more attractive than I'd initially thought, though that just might price him out of the Dodgers' budget.
One final thing on Kennedy, and I swear I'll drop it for a while after this: a quick timeline of his last two years.
Feb. 5, 2010: Coming off a decent 2009 with Oakland, signs a $1.25m guaranteed contract for 2010 with Washington.
2010: Hits just .249/.327/.327 for Washington, one of the worst years of his career.
Nov. 3, 2010: Nationals decline Kennedy's $2m 2011 option.
Jan. 10, 2011: Mariners sign Kennedy to a minor-league deal with an invite to spring training; he makes the roster when the Mariners decide Dustin Ackley needs more seasoning.
Jan 27, 2011: Arrested in Newport Beach for suspicion of DUI.
2011: Hits .234/.277/.355 for Seattle, a wOBA 25 points lower than his underwhelming 2010.
Nov. 30, 2011: After not being able to find a guaranteed contract in 2011 and having a horrible season… receives a guaranteed deal from the Dodgers.
Nothing wrong with that scenario, right?
Veteran reliever. Colletti's mentioned he'd like to add a veteran reliever, though as the Jackson piece notes, it's not a top priority. While this immediately rings Matt Guerrier warning bells for most of us, I'm guessing it probably shouldn't. There's just not payroll for that kind of expenditure (one small benefit of the ownership mess, I suppose), and while my position against large contract for fungible bullpen arms is well-known, that doesn't mean the bullpen has to be 100% young, homegrown players. If a well-traveled arm comes in on a low or non-guaranteed contract, that's fine. This is probably the area least likely to get touched this week.
With Kennedy added, the 40-man roster is full, though that's not really an issue. Trent Oeltjen, Jamie Hoffmann, and Ramon Troncoso could all be easily dropped, and Hong-Chih Kuo is an all-but-certain non-tender next week, with Dana Eveland likely to get non-tendered as well.

Hello Everyone... I am New here and to the whole Hackintosh stuff.. I have a problem.. Here it is:
Last month, I downloaded iATKOS v1.. Worked perfectly on my notebook.. excpet the sound ethernet and wireless... Other than that it was perfect.
then i searched around and i found that v7 was the latest one. I downloaded it burned v7 and installed it.. I was VERY happy since im new to mac and i wanted to see what mac has to offer. When X booted up from the chameleon dual boot (i still had windows 7 installed aswell) the apple logo showed and all i was getting really excited... Then it comes to a blue screen. What the? And the blue screen never went away.. But did hear some music.. How can i solve this issue? when i booted up from the DVD and looked in Hardware info i saw all of my display and sounds and wireless etc.. info..
This is what i jotted down (What seemed to be my display info im guessing)
8086:27a2 Intel Mobile 945GMS, 943/940 GML Intergrated Graphics controller
8086:27a0 Intel Mobile 945GM/PM/GMS, 943/940GML and 945 GT express memory controller hub
8086:27a6 Mobile945GM/GMS/GME 943/940 GML Express Integrated Graphics controller
cant i just get the driver from v1 iATKOS version?
or do i have to download some type of driver for it?
Thank you! Noone seems to be helping me with this :\ Not even admins from iATKOS forums themselves :\
p.s. I have a Gateway MX8710

Page Headlines Preseason All-CAA Men's Soccer Team
RICHMOND, Va. (August 13, 2013) – Drexel senior midfielder Nathan Page, who earned All-CAA and All-Region honors in 2012, has been chosen as the CAA's preseason men's soccer Player of the Year for 2013 in voting by the league's head coaches.
Page led the Dragons and ranked among the top 10 in the CAA last season with nine goals and 19 points. The senior midfielder scored a goal in six consecutive conference games from Oct. 6-24. Four of his goals were game-winners, including three that came in CAA road contests. Page received first-team All-CAA and second-team All-South Atlantic Region accolades and was picked as the Philadelphia Soccer Six Player of the Year. His performance helped lead Drexel to the CAA regular-season title and its first NCAA Tournament berth since 1972.
Joining Page in the midfield on the preseason All-CAA men's soccer team were UNCW junior Jamie Dell, William & Mary junior Marcus Luster, Northeastern senior Dante Marini and Drexel senior Ken Tribbett. Dell earned first-team All-CAA honors in 2012 after contributing four goals and a team-best four assists for the Seahawks, while Luster shared the team lead with three goals for the Tribe last year. Marini, who had a goal and five assists a year ago, was a first-team All-CAA pick in 2011 and made the second team in 2012. Tribbett tallied three goals and two assists last season and made the All-CAA second team for the second year in a row.

On Tuesday afternoon, two vehicles collided on the Beverly Pike at the intersection with the Walmart parking lot's main entrance in Elkins.
Marion Eye, driving a Ford Range south on the pike, was cited for failing to yield when attempting to turn in to the Walmart parking lot, officials said.
During the turn, the driver of a Jeep Cherokee, proceeding north on the pike, struck the right rear of the Ranger with the right front of his own vehicle.
The name of the driver of the Cherokee was not released by authorities because he is a juvenile.
Patrolman R. W. Belt and Lieutenant D. Richards from the Elkins Police Department responded to the scene.
The Elkins Fire Department and EMT also responded.
No injuries were reported to either driver.

To be fair, for me, it would have been $160 something because of my upgrade with TMO. However, Google has FUBAR'ed this entirely by choosing exclusivity rather than intelligent business model.
To be fair, for me, it would have been $160 something because of my upgrade with TMO. However, Google has FUBAR'ed this entirely by choosing exclusivity rather than intelligent business model.
Tmo you've seen my touch screen phone with Wifi and push email, I pay 10.00 for full data and still get more than anyone one else with a carrier branded phone. I am saving 20.00 a month for as long as I use it PLUS I have far more features.
As far as nexus one, you will NOT see that a TMO store anytime soon, though, I think you will eventually. It was designed to be sold by google and not in the TMO retails for the same reasons I mentioned above. The way google is marketing the phone you do not have to have any of the crappy carrier restrictions.
Nexus One sales SUCK right now because of the early bad press. It not a very impressive looking phone but the OS is amazingly fast and a the best phone currently on the market. One real big issues is the fact that TMOs 3g is not rolled out everywhere adn is still spotty in most markets
that's where i think google underestimated it's target market. no matter what carrier people prefer (or none at all if they are in a position to purchase the phone outright...), there is so much to be said for being able to walk into a place and have in hand-in person, the item you are interested in. Even if they kept sales exclusively through their Google Store, to have that one demo in certain stores for consumers to go hold and feel and assess I think would have meant more sales over and above those lost just from bad press.
I was ready to buy two. Granted, it was with two upgrades linked to a carrier, but it was two phones none the less. What killed it for me was the inability to get anyone to answer any questions about this phone because Google was impossible to reach and they gave nothing in the way of information to the carriers customer service aside from "call google". Well, I called google and was met with a 30 minute wait time and no answers. Then was met again with a denial of my upgrade because their system didnt acknowledge what it should have. Im not like Jeff and Ali. I will not purchase something that costs THAT much blindly. I want as much tangible information as I can get.
To me, the bad press means little to me aside from more confirmatoin that their roll out of this phone was not very well thought out from a consumer standpoint, and it cost them sales.

Or he did.
Since enrollment began Oct. 1 for Alabama's federally managed insurance marketplace, part of the 2010 Affordable Care Act, Nelson has tried helping residents understand their options through his role as Anniston's federal "navigator." Since it went live however, the website dedicated to enrolling Americans has been maligned with technical problems. However, over the weekend the federal government upgraded the website considerably — enough to handle 50,000 users at once, federal officials say. So far, Nelson and his counterparts in the area say they have not had problems with the site since, meaning they'll be able to help more residents search for affordable health care.
The insurance marketplace offers various health plans from private insurers mainly to Americans who cannot afford health insurance. The costs of the plans are supplemented by tax credits for people at certain income levels. Coverage begins Jan. 1 in the marketplace for those who have enrolled by Dec. 23.
Though residents can enroll for the insurance by mail, the federal government has pushed its website, Healthcare.gov, as the main way to navigate the marketplace. Up until this week though, there were few times Nelson did not face issues with the site.
"But now there are many improvements," Nelson said.
Nelson said a big improvement is the ability to edit an insurance application.
"Before, if you wanted to make major changes to it, it was almost impossible to do it," Nelson said. "You basically had to call someone to do it."
The website had many glitches, such as not adding family members to a plan when applicants clicked on the option to do so. Many times, applications would freeze halfway through completion, forcing people to start over, Nelson said.
"But now I have not experienced any of that at all," Nelson said.
Still, despite the online issues, Nelson has managed to help more than 100 people understand their insurance options, either with the website or through the paper application process, he said.
Sonja Smith, project coordinator for the nonprofit Enroll Alabama, said navigators across the state have experienced similar improvements. Enroll Alabama was established with federal money to help educate Alabamians about the marketplace. Besides Nelson, the nonprofit has several federally designated navigators stationed around the state, whose sole purpose is to help residents understand the marketplace, but not to tell them which insurance plan to buy.
Smith said a major improvement to the site is in how it functions under heavy use. Before the recent upgrades, it was constantly overloaded by heavy traffic, she said. The website now constantly refreshes when users first sign in and notifies them when it is ready to handle more people. Previously, users would just start the enrollment process, only to see their applications slow to a crawl because too many people were on the site at once.
"Now it self-regulates its own capacity," Smith said. "It definitely is working ... I'm hoping it's always smoother from here on out."
Debra Foster, a federally funded application counselor based in Anniston who has more training than a standard navigator, said she has noticed considerable improvement in the website.
"I've had several calls this morning from people who I've been working with for the last 20 days, saying their information is getting through," Foster said Wednesday. "The system is now responding and giving persons options."
Foster, who has assisted more than 200 people since she started in October, said while the website's problems are frustrating, they are due in part to the significant need for health care across the country.
"The problem is there are thousands of people who do not have health care coverage," Foster said. "The system is just overloaded."
Dr. Mike Morrisey, director of the UAB Lister Hill Center for Health Policy, said while public opinion has soured on the insurance marketplace due to the website's problems, it's still worth the government's time to institute improvements.
"I think every step forward is still a step forward," Morrisey said.
However, Morrisey noted there was some concern among critics of the site that while improvements have been made to the website for consumers, there are still technical problems for insurers.
"There are some problems on the back end where they transfer information to the insurers," Morrisey said. "There may be some concern of 'am I enrolling with who I think I am?'"
Koko Mackin, spokeswoman for Blue Cross Blue Shield of Alabama, which is offering plans in the state marketplace, said the insurer has experienced some technical issues with the website.
"When we identify any errors in the data transferred to us, we are notifying the federal government and are working with them to help resolve any technical issues," Mackin said.
Mackin added that the technical problems with the site will not impact Blue Cross' coverage deadlines.
"We will be ready to provide coverage beginning Jan. 1 for those who have enrolled by Dec. 23 through the federal marketplace," she said.

PORTLAND — Gov. Paul LePage struck back at critics of Portland's charter school Wednesday, saying he was "offended" that they criticized the public school for hosting an event by the conservative Maine Heritage Policy Center.
Gov. Paul LePage shares a light moment with Allison Crean Davis, vice chairwoman of the Baxter Academy board, and others during the Maine Heritage Policy Center luncheon at the charter school in Portland on Wednesday.

"I was shocked this week by Sen. (Justin) Alfond," LePage told about 75 people at the annual Friedman Legacy Day Celebration, at the Baxter Academy for Technology and Science, which will open this fall at 54 York St.
"(Alfond) offended me deeply when he attacked Baxter Academy simply because he's had it easy. He had the best education money can buy," said LePage, referring to Alfond's private school education.
Alfond went to Dexter public schools through 10th grade and attended private schools in Massachusetts for his last two years of high school, when his family moved.
LePage, who was not on the list of scheduled speakers, made an unexpected appearance at Wednesday's luncheon.
Alfond and other Democratic state legislators criticized Baxter's leaders this week for hosting the luncheon with the conservative advocacy group, saying it politicizes the school and inflames an already volatile debate over charter schools in Maine.
Charter schools receive public funding but are formed and operated by parents, teachers and community leaders, and are exempt from many of the rules and regulations that apply to public school districts. They have become a partisan issue in Maine, strongly backed by LePage and conservative groups, and opposed by some legislators and others who want to protect funding for traditional public schools.
Alfond called LePage's criticism an ongoing pattern.
"When someone disagrees with his policies or politics, the governor's response is not one that further advances the conversation but instead he personally attacks -- often with attacks that are not based in reality," he said in a statement released Wednesday afternoon.
He said the issue remains about public schools and political groups.
"Baxter Academy is a public charter school," he said in the statement. "As a public school, it is inappropriate and frankly a disservice to their students for the school to choose a partnership, financial or otherwise, with a fringe political group. Students at Baxter want a school focused on a STEM education, not a political training camp for the Maine Heritage Policy Center."
During the luncheon, Baxter Academy's board Vice Chairwoman Allison Crean Davis told the audience that the school must raise funds for capital projects because charter schools cannot get state money for them.
In some states, grant money is available for startup costs. In Maine, charter schools get per-pupil state funds, which follow students from the school districts where they live.
The governor sent Alfond a letter Wednesday that was more sharply worded than his remarks at the event. It homes in on Alfond's personal finances and education.
"Attacking a public charter school that provides choice for Maine students reeks of hypocrisy," LePage wrote. "You were fortunate enough to choose from any number of private high schools, and you had the unlimited financial resources necessary to attend Noble and Greenough, an elitist private school in Massachusetts. ... The students who choose to attend Baxter cannot afford the world-class education you received at a very expensive boarding school."
Alfond is a grandson of the late Harold Alfond, who founded the Dexter Shoe Co. and used his fortune to create the Harold Alfond Foundation, which continues to primarily support athletic and educational efforts in Maine.

North Star Foundation Overview
Add to my favorites Added to favorites!
North Star Foundation was formed to help children who have developmental differences such as autism, or who must face challenges such as the loss of a parent, through the use of a specially bred and trained Assistance Dog. Our mission is to help children reach their social, emotional, and educational goals through the use of Animal-Assisted Therapy. We work with the children's existing therapists to help them incorporate their North Star dog into a child's therapeutic program. We travel to childrens' schools to present a program to their peers that promotes tolerance and understanding, as we believe there is no better way to teach tolerance than through the avenue of an Assistance Dog that is trained to help. We also work with children's families, teaching them how to use their North Star Dog to help smooth transitions and soothe anxiety for everybody on the homefront.

But, please wait and put out your trashed items pretty close to the day they pick it up so the rest of us in the neighborhood don't have to look at your trash laying street-side all week long. If they come on Fridays, don't put it out on Saturday.
A nice clean neighborhood looks junky with all that trash piled at the road.

Plumas County employees will continue to work four nine-hour days — at least that's the assumption county supervisors will begin with as they start the next fiscal year's budget process.
During the board's April 9 meeting, the county's budget consultant, Susan Scarlett, said that she and county Auditor Roberta Allen were beginning to work on the 2013-14 budget and wanted direction.
In addition to budgeting for the 36-hour work week, the initial document won't include funding for a county administrative officer.
Supervisors Sherrie Thrall, Terry Swofford and Jon Kennedy immediately agreed that they didn't want to fund that position, at least initially.
Additionally, the supervisors want the budget workshops and hearings to be conducted in front of the full board, as they were last year.
Historically, a committee headed by the CAO conducted the budget workshops, but in the absence of that position, the supervisors decided to forego that practice so that they could better understand the county's budget and each department's functions and spending.
The supervisors also discussed the need to begin funding retiree health benefits.
Supervisor Thrall suggested that the non-general fund departments, such as social services and public health, begin the process.
"This would at least start building it," Thrall said referring to the account that the county has set up to pay for the benefit, but has not funded to date.
It's recommended that the county set aside $1.7 million annually to pay for retirees' health care, but that hasn't happened.
"We have talked about doing it by department," Auditor Allen said.
In that scenario, each department's portion of the liability would be calculated.
"It's a debt we owe," Thrall said.
"And it continues to grow," Allen added.
Budget worksheets will be provided to department heads in early May and they will have a couple of weeks to respond.
Social services budget
During last year's budget process, the supervisors decided it would be educational to also review the budgets of the departments that receive the overwhelming bulk of their funding from state and federal sources.
During the April 9 meeting, the supervisors met with Social Services Director Elliott Smart and he provided an overview of his department.
The total social services budget is $7.4 million with state revenue accounting for 41 percent, federal revenue for 36 percent and realignment monies for 21 percent. Realignment shifted responsibility from the state to the county for social service programs and dedicated a one-half cent sales tax to the counties to pay for the shift.
"It has been a stable source of revenue," Smart said.
Last year the department paid nearly $1.3 million in CalWORKs cash assistance payments and $2.46 million in foster care payments.
The county's food stamp assistance has increased over the past several years.
"This safety net program has gone up significantly," Smart said. In 2006 the county paid $59,162 in food stamps, but by 2011 the number reached $208,507.
He added that the poor economy has brought in people who in the past never needed to ask for assistance.

Cabrillo Music Theatre Welcomes Shirley Jones and Patrick Cassidy in TWO SIDES TO EVERY STORY Tonight
Cabrillo Music Theatre announces the next in a series of fundraising and entertainment events in the recently renovated Founders' Room of the Thousand Oaks Civic Arts Plaza. Shirley Jones & Patrick Cassidy: TWO SIDES TO EVERY STORY will take place tonight, February 10th, at 7:00PM, and reunites the Oscar-winning star of stage, films and television, Shirley Jones, with her son, Broadway and television star Patrick Cassidy. The Founders Room is located in the Kavli Theatre, Thousand Oaks Civic Arts Plaza, 2100 Thousand Oaks Boulevard in Thousand Oaks.
Shirley Jones and Patrick Cassidy, who headlined Cabrillo's popular Holiday Spectacular a couple of years back, use the intimate space of the Founders' Room to regale guests with stories and anecdotes about their lives and careers, take questions from the audience, and perhaps launch into a song or two. Jones and Cassidy, who became the first mother-son duo ever to headline a Broadway show (42ND STREET), combine to bring decades of success in every facet of entertainment. The Civic Arts Plaza's Founders' Room, with its limited seating and upscale atmosphere, provides the perfect backdrop for a humorous, warm, and theatre-savvy evening.
Shirley Jones and Patrick Cassidy share more than genes and artistic success; they are both fans of Cabrillo Music Theatre. Says Lewis Wilkenfeld, Cabrillo Music Theatre's Artistic Director, "When Cabrillo began dealing with our financial challenges last year, one of the first phone calls I received was from Patrick - reaching out to offer help. And Shirley has been such a passionate advocate for Cabrillo that we used her quote about the organization on last season's brochure! With the start of a new year, and Valentine's Day coming up, this seemed like the perfect time for this family reunion, to help support Cabrillo and our 'Beyond the Footlights' outreach programs!" Adds Wilkenfeld, "When you think of the entire family, you can't help but be awed by the sheer volume of talent, creativity and fame that they've provided for generations of audiences. What stories they can tell!"
From childhood to adult artistic collaborators, from Broadway to their upcoming national tour of THE MUSIC MAN to the local confines of the Civic Arts Plaza's Founders' Room, Shirley Jones and Patrick Cassidy promise laughs, love, and very likely a few disagreements.... because, in every family, "There's Two Sides to Every Story!"
THE CABRILLO FOUNDERS' ROOM CONCERT FUNDRAISER SERIES - Shirley Jones & Patrick Cassidy: TWO SIDES TO EVERY STORY will take place on Sunday, February 10th, 2013, 7:00PM in the Founders Room of the Thousand Oaks Civic Arts Plaza. The entertainment will be preceded by a brief cocktail hour featuring hors d'ouevres, and followed by a reception with Patrick and Shirley, with desserts from Valley Bakery. Tickets are $75, and can be purchased at www.cabrillomusictheatre.com, or by phone at the Cabrillo Music Theatre office, 805-497-8613. Tickets will also be on sale in the Civic Arts Plaza lobby during the first weekend of performances of YOU'RE A GOOD MAN, CHARLIE BROWN. Shirley Jones & Patrick Cassidy is recommended for audiences age 10 and up. Seating is limited, and the event is sure to sell out quickly.
Shirley Jones: Born in tiny Smithton, PA (pop. 877), only daughter of the Jones Family (brewers of popular "Stoney's Beer") the feisty and precocious Shirley Mae was an early community handful, but showed signs of a particularly mellow vocal range, and that was the beginning. Someone suggested that 18-year-old Shirley Mae sign up for the "Miss Pittsburgh" competition. It was not Shirley's #1 passion, but she went along, and took the crown. It was 1952. She gets a call from a friend who tells her that the Rodgers & Hammerstein show South Pacific, currently on Broadway, will be having open auditions to replace two parting chorus members. Shirley got to the front of the line at the St. James Theatre and sang her song, "The Best Things in Life are Free." "Please wait," the man said - and another line and another trip out front to sing. Finally, almost exhausted, the line whittled down to a handful, a fourth performance, and a voice from the back of the darkened theatre - "Thank you Miss Jones, for being here so long. If you don't mind, I'd like to call my partner, Mr. Hammerstein, and ask that he come down and hear you." "Oh Sure," the always gracious Shirley says, "And what is YOUR name?" (Words that Mr. Richard Rodgers will never forget, we daresay). Mr. Hammerstein arrived and the Shirley Jones whirlwind began. Put under the immediate "personal management" contract to the Rodgers & Hammerstein partners (first and last time ever) it was not fully a year later that 19 year old Shirley Mae Jones was screen-testing in Hollywood for the super-coveted role of Laurie in the film version of the long running Broadway play Oklahoma! (along with heavyweight likes of Kathryn Grayson, Debbie Reynolds and Jane Powell). We all know what happened then...and we all probably know what happened after that. From Carousel, The Music Man, April Love, an Oscar for her role as Lulu Baines, (the prostitute opposite Burt Lancaster in "Elmer Gantry"), to the harried head of "The Partridge Family;" movie, television and stage roles, a record breaking Broadway run, two recent Emmy nominations, and an ongoing career of SRO Symphony Concerts and speaking engagements world-wide; to be sure an incandescent place in the hearts of all America that doesn't ever seem to go away.

The Bureau of Maternal and Child Health (MCH) strives to assure the health and well-being of children, our most valuable resource. The Bureau provides leadership in protecting children and youth, including those with special health care needs, and in strengthening families so that all can be helped to reach their full potential. Building systems of care to assure that South Carolina's women, infants, and children have access to the care and services that they need is a major priority of the MCH Bureau. The Bureau consists of five divisions that together offer services and programs for pregnant women, mothers, infants, children and youth, children with special health care needs, and families.
Division of Children's Health: administers the following programs: Care Line, Children's Health, Children with Special Health Care Needs, Early Childhood Comprehensive Systems, Newborn Hearing Screening, Newborn Metabolic Screening, State Consultant for Nurse-Family Partnership, Postpartum Newborn Home Visits, and School Health Nursing.

Division of Oral Health: The Division of Oral Health implements and evaluates oral disease prevention programs to reduce the burden of oral disease on prioritized populations and to reduce disparities in oral health. This division works closely with the SC Oral Health Advisory Council and Coalition and provides consultation and technical assistance to professionals and community partners.
Division of Research and Planning: The Division of Research and Planning works to systematically collect, analyze, interpret and report epidemiological and health systems data and coordinate planning and evaluation activities within the MCH Bureau. Ongoing activities within the Division of Research and Planning provide decision makers with information necessary to carry out assessment, assurance, and policy development activities to improve the health and well- being of MCH populations. Current programs include Birth Defects, Perinatal Regionalizaton and Statewide Infant Mortality Review.
Division of Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) Services: The WIC program was established by Congress in 1972 and is funded through the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). The Division of WIC Services provides supplemental foods and nutrition education at no cost to eligible persons. This division also provides a Farmer's Market Nutrition Program and breastfeeding education and counseling.

Mount Pleasant, Mich.- Central Michigan fell in Ann Arbor to No. 9 Michigan, 11-0, on Tuesday, April 23. The Chippewas dropped their second-straight game for the first time since March 15 at the Hoosier Classic. Senior Brogan Darwin finished the game 1-2 at the plate for Central Michigan.
The Wolverines jumped out to an early lead after holding the Chippewas to a 1-2-3 first inning. The bottom of the first started with a walk and then a single from Nicole Sappingfield to right field. Both runners advanced on a wild pitch. After a pop up to short, a second walk loaded the bases with one out. On a 2-2 count, Ashley Lane hit a homerun to left field to put Michigan up 4-0.
The Wolverines retired the Chippewa batters in order once again in the second inning, bringing Lauren Sweet to the plate. Back-to-back singles put two base runners on with no outs for Michigan before Lyndsay Doyle reached on a fielder's choice, throwing Sweet out at third. Sappingfield popped out for out number two, setting the scene for Sierra Romero to clear the bases with the Wolverines' second homerun of the game.
Before the third inning could begin, play was suspended due to rain. After an hour delay, junior Brittney Horan led off the third inning for the Chippewas. She grounded out to short, bringing Darwin to the plate. Darwin hit a single to left field on a 2-1 count. Junior Raechel Zahrn advanced her on a bunt, and beat the throw safely to first. With runners on first and second and one out, seniors Macy Merchant and Summer Knoop were unable to get on base.
In the bottom of the third, Dornbos held Michigan to one hit and stranded two base runners.
Trailing 7-0 and the middle of the lineup due to bat for Central Michigan, Haylie Wagner held the Chippewas hitless for her third 1-2-3 inning of the game.
The Wolverines extended their lead in the bottom of the fourth with four more runs. After giving up a one-out single, Dornbos was relieved by junior Kristen Kuhlman. Romero hit her second homerun of the game on the second pitch thrown by Kuhlman. After Caitlin Blanchard walked, Lane hit her second homerun to center field to put Michigan up 11-0.
Darwin and Zahrn led Central Michigan with one hit each. Dornbos started in the circle, pitching 3.1 innings and striking out one batter. Junior Chelsea Sundberg came in as relief to close the bottom of the fourth inning, pitching 0.2 innings and giving up no hits.
Lane finished the game 3-3 with two homeruns and six RBIs. Romero went 2-3 with two homeruns and five RBIs. Wagner pitched a complete game, holding the Chippewas to two hits and striking out six batters.
The Chippewas will come back home to continue Mid-American Conference play against Ball State and Miami over the weekend at Margo Jonker Stadium.

Masha to begin the Olympic Year in Brisbane
The Brisbane International has also been upgraded to a premier tournament for the 2012 season And Maria is also headlined for the Pan Pacific Open in Tokyo - http://ca.reuters.com/ar...ws/idCATRE76B1MT20110712
"Before the start of the tournament, Caroline Woznaicki and Maria Sharapova will reach the Tokyo to participate in charity events to support earthquake and tsunami victims. The huge earthquake and tsunami destroyed the Japan on March 11, 2011."
Hello everyone,
Do you know if Maria is going to play tournaments in France (except the french open).
Like if one of her sponsor is planing an event in France ? 'Cause I really would love to met her and I could only see her in France, Belgium or Luzembourg.
Thanks a lot for you help :)
Welcome to the forum. Not likely this year. 2012 only beginning to shape up.
TOKYO, Jul (Reuters) - Wimbledon finalist Maria Sharapova, French Open champion Li Na and world number one Caroline Wozniacki will headline this year's Pan Pacific Open, Tokyo organizers said on Tuesday.
Russian Sharapova, stunned by Czech Petra Kvitova in the women's Wimbledon final earlier this month, has twice won the $2.05 million Tokyo event, which begins on September 25.
Sharapova and Danish rival Wozniacki, the defending champion, will fly to Japan early to take part in charity events in support of the victims of the deadly earthquake and tsunami on March 11.
Organizers told Reuters, children would be invited from disaster-hit Fukushima Prefecture, where a power plant suffered a nuclear meltdown after being crushed by the tsunami wave.
"I was deeply saddened by the terrible disaster," Chinese trailblazer Li said in the statement, the first Asian to win a grand slam adding: "I continue to think about you during these difficult times."
Looking further ahead, Sharapova, currently ranked number five in the world, will open next year's campaign with January's Brisbane International, which was upgraded by the WTA to premier status for 2012, to warm up for the Australian Open.
"I have never been to Brisbane before and coming into the Australian Open I felt like Brisbane would be a good place for me to start the year," the glamour girl of women's tennis was quoted as saying on the tournament website(www.brisbaneinternational.com.au/) on Tuesday.
"It is the first tournament of the year and it's kind of here you see where your game is and how good your off-season has been and so you try and get in as many matches as you can before the Australian Open."
Posted on August 4, 2011
Thank you to everyone that sent in their questions for Maria. They were all great and Maria has answered some of them.
(See: http://www.mariasharapov...k-Maria---questions.aspx )
9. I'm Joanna from Hungary and I've been a big fan of you for 7 years now! I'd like to ask you what it would mean to you to win the Olympic Gold Medal? It must be a wonderful moment when they're playing the Russian anthem for you :) JoannaI can't wait to play the Olympics!!! It is a dream of mine to be an Olympic athlete. I was crushed when I could not play in Beijing.
I saw. Congrats, Nella. Others had that same sending curiosity but apparently all questions sent DID go through.
I'm still in shock !!! Unexpected , Maria answered my question. I did send the question 3 times and in all cases I did get a reply saying "undelivered " !?!?! Great,great, great !!!!!!
So happy for you! :D
Yeah, there are tell-tale signs around that it didn't all "just happen". But I'm not making out a clear scenario overall. Like you say, as in Kim-Serena, there are too many variables. Perhaps some "insiders" think they have a pretty good bead on where everyone is at right now, but I doubt they really do.
Let them think in their way / I mean "insiders"/ It doesnt matter really,cos they are wrong and live in their own world!!!
As to you,Paul, you are lucky that senator Joseph McCarthey is not in this world,the way you think is so RED!!!
p.s. to tell the truth: I like the way you think
Hey, it took seven decades to prove Marx was wrong--but it only took one or two more to prove he was right after all. lol
Yeah,Marx was right,and what is going on with American debt and recent EU problems proves that!!!
It has always been an option to play Masha in the first 2012 Fed Cup tie--in February after AO--and it now appears that may be the agenda. Given her chronic bad luck in Moscow, that makes sense. The site of the first 2012 tie (against Spain) is also Olympic Stadium:
October 28, 2011, № 167 (18 550)
Statement of Maria Sharapova that she be removed from the (YEC) tournament, few were surprised at the press center. Not many people believed that the second racket of the world, almost bereft of chances to get into the playoffs, would continue to fight for the title - with an injured leg. So the press conference after the defeat of the Russians at Li on Wednesday night became the latest to her this season.
"I am pleased the previous year"
- Alas, but must admit that my expectations were not met - began Sharapova. - I thought that after the first match my leg would be better, but in fact only increased inflammation, and swelling has increased. I could not move normally on the court, could not fully concentrate on the fight. Continue to act in such a situation simply does not make sense. Why risk one's health when the season is almost finished?
- Maybe the decision to fly to Istanbul was a mistake? - Maybe I'm really back in the Tour ahead of time. This was my first time with this injury and I do not fully understand how and what I need to do. But I do not regret that I still made Istanbul - and Maria gives a charming smile, clearly aimed at the organizers. - Moreover, the two matches I had a good idea, and could win, but somewhere I was not strong enough, somewhere - not good luck. I knew that I might have to withdraw, but also understood and more - even without uploading at full strength, I could fight for the victory. And it did.
- Fight for the first place in ranking did not happen. But overall you're happy with the season? - Of course! Year-end a bit disappointing, but I started it in the second top ten and finish - the second racket of the world! I played great on the ground, reached the finals of Wimbledon, although in recent years I've played poorly in London. And most importantly - feel that the new season may get even better.
- This is an Olympic season. - That's it! And it is very difficult. Summer will be a busy schedule - two "Grand Slams" in a row, then the Olympics and almost immediately - US Open. We'll have to sweat heavily.
- But the main purpose for you ... - Olympics! I very much want to win a medal in London. So now it is so important to fully recover and better prepare for the beginning of the year. - Where are planning to open the season? - most likely in Brisbane. - If you go to a match with Li. The defeat of the tiebreak strongly prevented properly tuned for the second set? - partly. Actually, I tried not to think about it, but hard to lead 4-0 and then lose seven points in a row.
